Did they tell you when the interviews are going to happen? Haha probably they have very few positions for international students. Some programs put that on their website, but not sure about Princeton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I might be waiting for rejection now. Just curious - for Princeton applicants, are you intended for computational/theoretical work? Or lab work?

Anonyneuron Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I’m not international, but still have total silence on my end ? looks like three of the programs I applied to sent out interviews, so here’s to hoping the other 11 pull through!!!!

Also, is it usual for interview invitations for international applicants to be sent later? I posted about Tufts. I think there will be more invites. They only have one interview weekend and it’s a very popular weekend with schools so I had to decline and I imagine others will be in the same boat.

phd2020 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 To the people who haven’t heard anything, stay positive! There’s still time this round and if you don’t hear anything this round, there’s always next year! I got rejected from every program I applied to last year, but worked hard and let it motivate me and this year got an interview offer from every program I applied to.

I've only seen about ~12 interview results with the keyword "neuroscience": Pitts, Iowa, UMich, OSU, Duke, Northwestern, Baylor University, Baylor medicine, Brandeis (2), UT Dallas (2), and 1 OHSU rejection. Any idea WHEN would other schools respond to international applicants? gaultiero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annairam Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Hi guys! International applicant from the UK here and just discovered Grad Cafe! Does anyone know if NYU and Weill Cornell accept a decent percentage of internationals and if they send the invites the same time as for the US applicants? Good luck to everyone!
